Trump Frustrated as Israel Iran Ceasefire Fails to Hold

President Donald Trump expressed his frustration with both Israel and Iran following the implementation of a ceasefire between the two nations. The truce, brokered by the United States, appeared tenuous as both sides took hours to acknowledge their acceptance and accused each other of violations. Trump's anger was evident as he criticized both countries for their actions post-ceasefire, particularly Israel, urging them to "calm down now."

Trump's rebuke came after he announced the ceasefire, which initially faltered, leaving him frustrated with both sides. He took to Truth Social to announce the ceasefire, emphasizing the importance of adhering to it. "Please do not violate it!" he posted, highlighting the fragility of the agreement. His frustration was further evident when he swore at both nations for their continued hostilities, calling Israel's actions a major violation of the ceasefire.

In a phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump clarified that the United States would not pursue further offensive military action against Iran. This statement came after Iran claimed that the U.S. strikes had failed to destroy its nuclear facilities, adding another layer of complexity to the situation. Trump's envoy, however, reported that the fragile ceasefire was holding, and peace talks were underway.

The ceasefire, which Trump referred to as an end to a "12-day war," was met with continued fire between the two countries. Trump's response was one of anger, but he also expressed hope for a lasting peace. His comments reflected the delicate nature of the situation and the challenges in maintaining the ceasefire. The U.S. stance on future strikes remains unclear, but Trump's message to both nations was one of restraint and adherence to the ceasefire agreement.
